Center for Puppetry Arts

Nowhere else has this. Great with or without kids. Puppet shows are superlative and they have almost all of the legendary Jim Henson's work. If you think you don't like puppets...GO HERE.

Their puppetry rendition of Rudolph is a must. Like the Burl Ives classic. Go to the first show as it gets much crowded later. Make puppets after upstairs. Get tickets online early. It sells out!

Impressive kids’ shows, adults-only plays, puppet-making workshops, and interactive exhibits go down in one of the country ’s premier puppet centers which displays some of Jim Henson’s original puppets

I like this place quite a bit and the new museum is awesome. There is also waaaaay too many people who work there bothering you non-stop

Amazing place! Like walking back in time to my childhood! Love all of Jim Henson exhibits and went especially to see The Labyrinth exhibit and it was amazing!! I could have stayed all day!

Spend an afternoon as a family at the Center for Puppetry Arts where everyone can relive their childhood. Watch a play or create a puppet to take home while you visit.

Fascinating and well-curated collection - and the Jim Henson exhibit is awesome :)

The museum is undergoing a renovation. Shows are top notch and include a workshop afterwords.

It looks closed due to construction of the new museum wing, but it isn't. Guyi-Guyi: the Other Ugly Duckling is a lovely and sweet! Go see it, now, while it is playing.

A great place. There is a nice exhibit on Indian puppetry at the moment.

Don't miss the Create a Puppet workshop after every show. It's included in your ticket and kids love it-and gives them a puppet to relive the show at home.
